Don’t think Tidser will be under pressure if we lose the next couple, but it depends how we lose.

There should be signs he’s learning. Ie if Todd starts against raith and Chalmers is still at left back and we’re still passing it around and the back and giving the ball away and looking exposed everytime the opposition come into our half.

Even if results are not good we need to see that he’s understanding what does and doesn’t work at this level, if that’s not obv in the next 5 games it might be time to worry.

Possession is bad. Especially on our position
V sad when players get ball on wrong foot or wrong side. And have very little skill to move forward, doesn`t help when the guys in front hide near defenders. Then they have no choice but go backwatds

Pars make life difficult by coming up with these pigeon hole ideologies. They are just trying to over complicate things.

Why do we have to be a youth developing club and have an age profile for our players?

Why do we have to play a certain type of football regardless of our opponent?

Can we not play a style of football that suits each opponent we play and be a bit more flexible. Can we not sign a wide range of players, that are the best for a certain position we`re looking to fill. Regardless of their age. Why are we making life difficult for ourselves having to stick to defined structures all the time.


Spot on.

"Don’t think Tidser will be under pressure if we lose the next couple, but it depends how we lose."

I guess it depends where we think the "pressure" will come from, was certainly a very vocal element within the support voicing displeasure at playing style etc.

Yeah, he was sitting in the technical area as can be seen in the photos on COWS.

There is quite a few just waiting for him to fail right enough but I’m hopeful that given a chance to get his own players in can be different. Given the last few years if he can keep us up this season and have us in the top half of the league last year playing some half decent stuff that’s a success.

Talk of a young centre back/defensive midfielder coming in from st Johnstone is interesting as we do have plenty players for those positions but he’s obv identified that as a weak point in the team and you can’t argue with that. As a midfielder himself he’ll know what’s missing for us.

Just hoping he has an eye for an attacking player too.

Yeah I don’t get the pessimism regarding Tidser although I wasn’t there Saturday so maybe if I had watched that, I’d be thinking differently 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ultimately, I hope he’s successful. I want to see the Pars back in the top league and I want EEP full and rocking

The pessimism from me, NMC, is partly because he managed to turn our forward momentum into reverse. Accies are not just two points ahead of us, they`re two points with two games in hand. Teams above us could soon be out of sight. We have to do considerably better than the teams above us if we`re going to catch any of them.

Also, others agree his playing style doesn`t inspire much hope. I don`t see getting mangled by Airdrie as just a blip or teething problems for the new manager, McGlaughlan had got us on a better track, Tidser comes in and suddenly from being competitive, we`re a write-off as a team. Tidser has only been given 15 games, there`s no time for starting over. My mistake was thinking he could come in and continue the momentum McGlauchlan had created.

Hoping to see us succeed means nothing.

It`s beginning to look a lot like we`re toast.

Accies two points and one game ahead now, you would think ?

The two games in hand point is, thankfully, not ageing well.

We still have to play all the teams around us, most of them home and away. Things can change quite quickly.

I don’t think anyone is saying that? That score keeps Accies within reach.

"Accies within reach". Only if we can get more points than them. I don`t see us as that team right now. Because of the fact that we got horsed by Airdrie. Bottom team. Couldn`t beat an egg, made an omelette of us.
